More Modern 28mm buildings!

It is the school holidays here so painting takes a back seat even though my 10 year old only needs my attention for meals and snacks I still cannot find the time. So instead of painting the Burgundians I have been building a rather large block of flats...tonight I am going to research (OK float around the web) looking for Arabic or African signs to put on my growing township...Black Ops 3 is a good source for this.

I have almost completed the first "Battle" of my medieval army though the Perry figures are hard work so I am glad of the rest....3 units of archers and one of billmen, only 36 figures but they seem to have taken an age. Not looking forward to the crossbowmen so I may order some Assault group figures next week to bulk out my African stuff....i can even see myself selling the medievals to fund a Back of Beyond or darkest Africa army...Chris Peers has been incredibly influential in war gaming don't you think?

Thanks for the help Chaps! I will complete the building next week and maybe start again with the medeivals...Darkest Africa is a good idea, lots of plastic Zulu and Sudan types which will save money. In the meantime....back to the heraldry....
